Leibniz-Institut DSMZ<p>Sallie W. Chisholm is an American biological oceanographer and professor at the MIT. In 1988, Chisholm and her team uncovered the existence of Prochlorococcus, a microorganism that is responsible for producing more than half of the oxygen in our planet’s atmosphere. To honour her significant contributions to the ecology and evolution of ocean microbes, DSMZ researchers named the strain Streptomyces chisholmiae (DSM 44915) after her.</p><p><a href="https://wisskomm.social/tags/herstory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>herstory</span></a> <a href="https://wisskomm.social/tags/WomenInScience" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WomenInScience</span></a> <a href="https://wisskomm.social/tags/microbiology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>microbiology</span></a> <a href="https://wisskomm.social/tags/Cyanobacteria" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Cyanobacteria</span></a></p>
